Interface Commands

The various commands for accessing the calibrator functions via the digital in-
terfaces are listed in this section (see Table 2 starting on page 47). These com-
mands are used with both the RS-232 serial interface and the IEEE-488 GPIB
interface. In either case the commands are terminated with a carriage-return
character. The interface makes no distinction between upper and lower case let-
ters, hence either may be used. Commands may be abbreviated to the minimum
number of letters which determines a unique command. A command may be
used to either set a parameter or display a parameter depending on whether or
not a value is sent with the command following a “=” character. For example
“s”<CR> returns the current set-point and “s=50.00”<CR> sets the set-point to
50.00 degrees.

In the following list of commands, characters or data within brackets, “[” and
“]”, are optional for the command. A slash, “/”, denotes alternate characters or
data. Numeric data, denoted by “n”, may be entered in decimal or exponential
notation. Spaces may be added within command strings and will simply be ig-
nored. Backspace (BS, ASCII 8) may be used to erase the previous character.
A terminating CR is implied with all commands.
